Abstract
Information specifying an initial motion of a vehicle when travel is started on a road in a predetermined section is obtained, and information specifying an estimated motion, which is associated in advance with the initial motion, of the vehicle on the road in the predetermined section subsequent to the initial motion is also obtained. Based on the estimated motion, a guidance unit mounted in the vehicle provides guidance for supporting driving when traveling on the road in the predetermined section.

7. A driving support device comprising:
-
an initial motion obtaining unit for obtaining information that specifies an initial motion of a vehicle when starting travel on a first road section of road sections that are consecutive; an estimated motion obtaining unit for obtaining information that specifies an estimated motion, which is associated in advance with the initial motion, of the vehicle on the road sections subsequent to the initial motion; and a guidance control unit for controlling a guidance unit mounted in the vehicle so as to provide guidance for supporting driving when traveling on the road sections, based on the information specifying the estimated motion, characterized in that the initial motion of the vehicle when starting travel is a stopping motion on the first road section of the road sections or a motion of going through the first road section of the road sections without stopping. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A driving support method comprising the steps of
obtaining information that specifies an initial motion of a vehicle when starting travel on a first road section of road sections that are consecutive; -
obtaining information that specifies an estimated motion, which is associated in advance with the initial motion, of the vehicle on the road sections subsequent to the initial motion; and controlling a guidance unit mounted in the vehicle so as to provide guidance for supporting driving when traveling on the road sections, based on the information specifying the estimated motion, characterized in that the initial motion of the vehicle when starting travel is a stopping motion on the first road section of the road sections or a motion of going through the first road section of the road sections without stopping.

14. A non-transitive computer-readable medium storing a computer-executable driving support program causing a computer to perform the functions of:
-
obtaining information that specifies a state of a vehicle when starting travel on a first road section of road sections that are consecutive; obtaining information that specifies an estimated motion, which is associated in advance with an initial motion, of the vehicle on the road sections subsequent to the initial motion; and controlling a guidance unit mounted in the vehicle so as to provide guidance for supporting driving when traveling on the road sections, based on the information specifying the estimated motion, characterized in that the initial motion of the vehicle when starting travel is a stopping motion on the first road section of the road sections or a motion of going through the first road section of the road sections without stopping.
